A couple weeks ago my older son got a bill collector's call in regards to debt my younger son has, looking for him. My older son called me to tell me about the call. My first response was those calls have nothing to do with me. I've received them myself and the bill collector calling tries to stir up family members' emotions to scare them. A lot of people probably fall for it and wind up paying off debt that someone else has incurred. My older son may have thought I was a bit cold sounding about the phone calls. I am wiser now. I don't want my RAS or his bill collectors messing with my serenity! It's not my problem.
It could be your boyfriend's mother was trying to distance herself from her son's disappearing act--hence it seemed like she was being rude to you.
